Ah I guess from re-reading some of this you've shrunk the Balance column in one of the Registers and not the accounts tab :-) As David T. said, if you're running Windows you can just open File Explorer and type %APPDATA% in the address bar which will open your AppDate \ Roaming folder and you should see your GnuCash folder in it. If you open that and then open the books folder you should see your <gnucash file name>.gnucash.gcm file. I guess you need to search for a 'balance_width=0' or maybe 'balance_width=1' in it and set it to something like balance_width=77.
